I don't know why, but I'm a total movie crier. I won't even bother listing the movies I've cried at, I'd surely surpass the character limit on a post.

Just to be clear, I'm not saying I resist crying or am unmoved by movies. Crying just doesn't seem to be part of my biological response to strong emotional stimuli.

I can be just as manipulated by movies as the next person. It just manifests as intense pressure in my chest, difficulty swallowing, etc.

I'll cry at anything. When I was much younger, my usual trigger was "Highway to Heaven" episodes. (Hey - teevee viewing was strictly monitored by the 'rents and there wasn't a lot that we were allowed to watch.) Mostly it's just a mild case of moist eyelids, but because the Ellie sequence hit on emotions I was already having trouble controlling, I bawled.

MY teevee trigger as a kids was, by far, The Wonder Years. I remember outright sobbing that last episode.

The Wonder Years somehow (and I don't remember how) triggered the first ever admission by a girl that she liked me. That next summer she was the first non-family girl I got to see naked.

Thank you Fred Savage.

Not a movie, but I have to add that everytime I hear when you wish upon a star during DL fireworks I lose it. You all know. You were there.

'Kitty' gets me too.
Still haven't seen Up - lunch with Dad took longer than expected. Tomorrow. I'm bringing tissues.
